Appearance

Kitfort KT-512

The design of the vacuum cleaner corresponds to the corporate style, it differs little from previous models. The case has the shape of a regular circle, made of black plastic with a matte and glossy finish. The design is strict, the robot looks much more expensive than its cost.

On the top cover in the center there is a control panel that combines three touch buttons and a display. Above the display is the IR receiver of the remote control signals, just below the proprietary inscription and the button for removing the garbage collection container.

A soft bumper with a rubber pad is placed on the front side part, it softens blows if the vacuum cleaner does not notice an obstacle and crashes into it. In the central part there are a pair of contacts for connecting to the base to replenish the charge. Across the circumference, collision sensors are covered with transparent plastic. On the rear side, there is a ventilation grill, followed by a fan, it requires periodic cleaning and dismantling, it is removed by pressing a button. On the right side of the bumper is a cable connection jack and a mechanical power button.

At the bottom are large drive wheels and a swivel roller, a battery compartment cover, side brushes and a central one, a place for mounting a napkin holder, a suction hole. At the bottom of the differential height sensor. Slightly below and to the right of the roller is a UV lamp for surface disinfection.

The main wheels of the vacuum cleaner are removed, installation is carried out on two screws, in the inside there is a motor. They are equipped with a disconnect switch, when the robot is on the floor, the contacts are closed and the robot moves, if the wheels come off the surface, their movement stops, and the vacuum cleaner goes into standby mode.

Functional

Kitfort KT-512

The robot is suitable for daily use on smooth, dry surfaces and light-pile carpets. The volume of the dust container is small, it is better to clean it after each cleaning cycle.It works as a polisher on hard surfaces - a frame and a dampened napkin on it are fixed to a special mount.

The control system is simple and intuitive. On the case, in its lateral part, there is a start and stop button. The remote control is used to program the schedule and configure cleaning parameters, and manual control is also performed from it. The robot has built-in optical and IR sensors. On the bottom of the case there are sensors for viewing the room and building the optimal route of movement.

The kit includes a special device to limit the movement of a virtual wall. An IR sensor is built into it, creating virtual barriers - invisible lines that the vacuum cleaner cannot go over.

The robot independently finds the base for the charge and connects to it. Sensors for finding a docking station are infrared, located at the bottom. The functionality includes such cleaning modes: automatic, manual, local, scheduled. The optimal robot path is determined independently by the electronics.

A cleaning programming function is available for each day of the week at a specified time. The main distinguishing feature of the model is a side brush protruding outside the housing to collect litter in hard to reach places. Together with a brush equipped with bristly bristles and a scraper, a UV lamp, a nozzle for wet mopping, the vacuum cleaner shows good cleaning results.
